Öz: Bu araştırma, üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik erteleme eğilimleriyle aile bağlamında benlikleri, ana-baba tutumları ve bazı sosyo-demografik değişkenler arasındaki ilişkileri ortaya koymak amacıyla betimsel nitelikte tasarlanmıştır. Araştırma grubunu 2011-2012 güz döneminde Ankara’daki bir devlet ve bir vakıf üniversitesinin çeşitli bölümlerinde öğrenimlerine devam eden 697 öğrenci (221 erkek, 475 kadın) oluşturmuştur. Öğrencilere Tuckman Akademik Erteleme Ölçeği – Kısa Formu, Aile Bağlamında Benlik Ölçekleri, Çocuk Yetiştirme Tutumları Ölçeği ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu uygulanmıştır. Araştırmada çoklu hiyerarşik regresyon ve tek yönlü varyans analizi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre anne sıkı denetimi/kontrolü, üniversite türü ve yaş değişkenleri üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik erteleme eğilimlerini yordamaktadır. Öğrencilerin aile bağlamında benliklerine göre akademik erteleme eğilimleri arasında manidar bir fark bulunmamıştır. Erkek ve kadın öğrencilerin algıladıkları anne tutumuna göre akademik erteleme eğilimleri manidar farklılık göstermektedir. Baba tutumuna göre ise sadece kadın öğrencilerin akademik erteleme eğilimleri arasındaki farkın manidar olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
